About The Gold Price
The Gold Price is an independent reference site for gold, silver, platinum, and palladium prices. We aggregate data from public markets and exchanges so individual investors, jewelry buyers, and savers can see a clean, comparable number without a trading account.
What we publish
- Live spot prices for gold, silver, platinum, and palladium — quoted in USD and converted to local currencies for every country we cover.
- Historical charts and returns — long-horizon performance so you can see how precious metals moved against other assets.
- Calculators — gold weight and jewelry estimators that apply typical premium and purity adjustments.
- Country pages — localized prices with flag, currency, and units familiar to each market (tola, lượng, baht, etc.).
- The Vault — a free personal ledger for tracking gold and silver holdings over time.
- Guides — explainers on buying physical metal, spot-vs-dealer pricing, storage options, and regional gold market mechanics.
How we source data
Every number on the Site is derived from publicly available market data. Spot prices update at market intervals; local prices are computed from the spot feed and a current exchange rate. We publish the update timestamp on every price so you can see when the number was last refreshed.
Upstream APIs can be temporarily stale or incorrect. When prices look out of line, always verify against the source before acting on them. Every source we use is listed on our Data Sources & Methodology page.
How we make money
The Gold Price is supported by affiliate commissions from precious-metals dealers, storage providers, and online marketplaces we link to. Commissions never cost you extra and do not influence which prices we display — the same data pipeline runs regardless of whether we have a commercial relationship with a provider. See the Affiliate Disclosure for details.
Who we write for
Individual savers, jewelry buyers, and long-term holders — people who want a straight answer to "what is an ounce of gold worth today, in my currency, right now" without a Bloomberg terminal or a trading account. We keep the product lean and the numbers clearly sourced so every figure has a clear provenance.
Independence
We operate independently, without outside investors, and never sell user data. Our focus is a single question — "what is this metal actually worth right now?" — and everything we publish is in service of answering it honestly.
